In an effort to force a transfer to PSG, French international forward Randal Kolo Muani missed training with Eintracht Frankfurt on Wednesday morning.
Kolo Muani chose to skip the training session, according to the German club, due to “his desire to be transferred to another club before the transfer window ends on Friday evening.”
Kolo Muani will not take part in Thursday’s Europa Conference League qualifier at home against Levski Sofia, the club announced.
He scored Frankfurt’s goal in the away match in Bulgaria, which ended in a 1-1 draw.
Markus Kroesche, the sporting director for Frankfurt, stated in a statement that “we know Randal differently and know his real character”, saying “the behaviour has no influence on transfer activities.”

The forward’s contract in Frankfurt runs until 2027. Frankfurt are reportedly holding out for a bid of 100m euros ($108m) from PSG for the forward.
Kolo Muani moved to Germany from Ligue 1 side Nantes on a free transfer in 2022 and had a breakout season in Frankfurt, scoring 23 goals and making 17 assists in 46 games.
The forward, who played in France’s World Cup final defeat to Argentina in December, told Sky Germany on Tuesday: “I would like to switch to Paris and I have told those responsible.”
